"DIFFERENCE IN THINKING"

Marriages often break up, when the couple find they are incompatible. Perhaps this will not happen, if we learnt to accept the difference in thinking and acting are a part of life and one does not distance oneself from people for minor difference of opinion.
A man must understand that women think differently. Men tend to be hasty and often can not understand the compromises a woman makes, to keep peace in the family. They see compromises as unneccessary. When a man finds the wife thinking differently, he is, therefore, annoyed. but on the other hand, the wife feels her husband as unfeeling because he is not able to think as she does. Neither of them is right in their attitude towards the other. If the man realises that women do not think as men do if women also accepts this difference as only natural, there will be peace in family. There will not be any need for them to think of separating. Instead of harping on major disagreement and magnifying these, untill they assume gigantic proportions. Husband and wife should think of those occasions when they helped each other out. If say, one of them had been ill, and the other had nursed the sick spouse, thinking of that would make one feel grateful and all disagreement would be forgoten. If people remember the good others have done them and if they do not think of quarrels all the time, life will be so easy much better.
It is not easy to think this way; it comes with practice. one thing that could help is the company of good people. The company of good people can be compared to heaven. Good people who are not quick to criticize others are those who teach us by example, how we should behave towards others. The more we are in the company of such people, the less egoistic we will be. The more accomodating we are towards others, the happier we will be. So we must seek the company of God-fearing, gentle people and learn from them how to live. That is what will give us happiness.
